Hey everyone, I’m in a bit of a crunch here. Last week, I got my financial aid package, and honestly, it hasn’t really cut it. I thought I’d be getting a bit more help, and now I’m freaking out about how to cover tuition and living costs.
Has anyone been in a similar situation and successfully asked their school for more financial aid? I really want to approach this right, but I’m not sure how to start the conversation. Should I just email the financial aid office or is there a better way to approach them?
Also, any tips on what information to include would be super helpful! Do they usually want to see proof of my financial situation or just my reasons for asking? Thanks in advance!
